Registering as a resident
(EU citizens)

If you are a EU citizen and are planning to stay for more than 3 months, you need to register and get a residence permit at the Migration Centre.

You will need to bring:

Your passport

Your work contract with a Lithuania-based company or see here for other options

Bring at least 3 copies of everything. If you are renting, you will need to have your landlord write a letter of confirmation and have it notarised. Alternatively, you can bring her or him to the Migration Centre to sign your residence permit.

Your residence permit application takes up to 10 days to process. Your residence permit will be valid for 3 years, when approved.
